Hello, and welcome my name is Tasha; a Clinical & Sports Massage Therapist, Pilates Practitioner & Nutrition Coach.

Hello, and welcome! My name is Tasha, and I am a Clinical & Sports Massage Therapist, Pilates Practitioner, and Nutrition Coach.

How It All Began

My journey started over 35 years ago as a Fitness Instructor, teaching Gym, Aerobics, Step, and Circuit classes. I competed in the ANB British Finals in the Athletic Figure category. After qualifying as a Personal Trainer, I worked part-time for many years while maintaining a full-time career in accountancy and credit management.

Sporting Background

From my early 20s, I have been deeply involved in weight training and cross-country running. I was a local club runner for many years and enjoyed various activities such as ice skating, cycling, snowboarding, and mountain climbing. Over the past 10 years, I have competed in Triathlons, ranging from sprint distances to the 70.3 Ironman. 

My Passion for Sports Massage

In 2014, despite being fit and healthy, I began suffering from severe lower back pain and sciatica. After months of pain, I underwent spinal surgery to remove a herniated L5/S1 disc that was trapping my nerve. This experience led me to become passionate about Sports Massage, ensuring my complete recovery and return to Triathlon. While studying for my ITEC Level 3 qualification, I received extensive Sports Massage Therapy, which helped me regain my fitness. Although I still experience occasional niggles, Sports Massage Therapy keeps them at bay.

Qualifications and Expertise

I qualified as a Level 4 YMCA HNC Sports Massage Therapist in 2018. On the holistic side, I am also certified to use Hot Stones, utilising volcanic rocks imported from Europe, which are incredibly relaxing and effective.

Continuous Learning and Development

For over 10 years, I have been dedicated to expanding my knowledge and experience as a Clinical & Sports Massage Therapist, completing various diplomas, certificates, and CPD courses. I am highly qualified and insured. Recently, I have also qualified as a Level 3 Pilates Practitioner and Level 4 Nutrition Coach.

I am currently enrolled in a three-year BTEC Level 6 Advanced Clinical Massage Therapy course.

The Jing Method™ of Advanced Clinical Massage is a unique, outcome-based system for addressing chronic musculoskeletal pain through a fusion of advanced soft tissue and massage techniques from both Eastern and Western traditions. I am already applying these techniques to help my clients, and they are very pleased with the results.
